Worthy
[Verse 1]
Black skin on me look good
White man hate me what’s new
No price can’t sell my soul
Tell me what I been through
I’m emotionally broke
I can’t afford it
I know my life through yo lens
It’s less important
I was born a descendant of slaves and poverty
Polished my frame of mind
Now it’s really nobody stopping me
Auctioning off my ancestors
Damn the devil been workin' how much is a life worth
He couldn’t breathe, we suffocating from the trauma since birth
Yes sir no sir
Fuck you both sir
Hands-on dashboard
Had plans to grow sir
Had no plans on dying for being as black as I am
I’m unlearning they fed us a bunch of lies
And they kept on moving the totem and told us to fuckin climb it
And I’m supposеd to give a fuck bout yo Target?
Google is free I’m donе educating white folk
Fuck that black screen and them story posts I’m still not sold
Grandma worked for the Panthers this is deja vu
I gotta make that call soon and check on you
[Chorus]
Just know you worthy
It was designed to bring you down but you still worthy
You didn’t like the way I said it but you heard me
It’s too much love out here and I know I’m worthy
[Verse 2]
We not protecting our black women enough
How you comin' down on her always she stay building you up
Seeking refuge end up dead
And wonder why she don’t trust
Niggas love to hate they selves and that’s all they offer up
I need a new perspective
We need more access to the therapy we been neglecting
I know my answers lie in elders need to stop deflecting
Need to start making them calls and learn myself a lesson
Wrote this on Father’s Day while fathers get took away to this day Because yo mother fuckin fragile racist system
Got a laundry list of demands that you choose to ignore
So we got even louder brought that shit to your door
It’s too late for being in quiet
Ain’t no going back to normal
Shit was never even normal
And I can’t say I ain’t avoid some awkward conversation searching For some understanding but that’s what the whole thread with the Homies is for
[Chorus]
Just know you worthy
It was designed to bring you down but you still worthy
You didn’t like the way I said it but you heard me
It’s too much love out here and I know I’m worthy
